	I was not really rooting for Chelsea until I saw that they were also playing against the refs. I would love to root for whoever is playing against Manchester United, but that would mean rooting for a team that clearly benefitted from some calls that weren't even questionable. Sure, the ref made bad calls against both sides, but that penalty?? I can't root for Manchester United, so I can only hope that Thierry Henry will make Barca worthy of winning the Champions League. I did not see a Champion playing against Chelsea these last two weeks. PS: As a life-long MancU hater, I've also had a soft spot for Man City. Here's to hoping City pulls off a big win this weekend!

Reading the French press the day after the game, they used phrases such as Barcelona were 'completely dominated'. Before they scored I don't remember seeing Barca get one shot on target! In the final I hope they manage to play the way they did against Real, rather than the way they played against Chelski!

	There were mistakes from the referees also against Barcelona. After so hard play from Chelsea's side (specially in the first leg), at the end,the only one sent off was Abidal from Barcelona. Chelsea supporters should complain about their team's play, with 9 defenders for almost 180 minutes, rather than complain about the referee. Football has beaten anti-football

	Well, the refereeing was truly appalling, but I suppose as most independent observers were looking forward to a Utd-Barca final there won't be too many complaints from non-Chelski supporters!

	Hy, like everybody i saw yesterday evening that Chelsea has been stolen by the referee (i think at least 2 penalties where forgotten), but we must remember the first match when Barcelone could hardly play because of numerous offenses ... What do you think ?
